About Bondi
Bondi is one of Australia's most iconic suburbs, famous worldwide for its stunning crescent-shaped beach and laid-back coastal lifestyle. Located just 7 km east of Sydney's CBD in the Waverley Council area, it's home to over 10,000 residents who enjoy an enviable mix of surf culture, café society, and village charm. The Bondi to Coogee coastal walk draws visitors year-round, while the weekly markets and bustling Campbell Parade create a vibrant social scene.
The suburb attracts a diverse mix of young professionals, creatives, backpackers, and long-term locals who've resisted the urge to leave. Median incomes sit around $64k, reflecting the area's mix of renters and homeowners. Beyond the beach, Bondi offers excellent dining, independent boutiques, and a strong fitness culture — from outdoor gyms to yoga studios. It's a place where salt-crusted hair and thongs are acceptable attire for most occasions.
Bondi falls under postcode 2026 and is governed by Waverley Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Vaucluse electorate.
